ROCK HILL, NY, July 02, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Over these past few weeks, WritingRaw has evolved and grown - allowing more of everything to be on the site... more writing in all our categories, more book and publishing news (updated daily), more art (with daily updated cartoons), more interactive features (the Wall), and other informative and entertaining bits and pieces. Over the next few days and weeks we will be adding some other NEW features (including an interactive section that will allow all of us to create the longest running poem in history, a never-ending short story and a section where you - the reader - can post Shout-Outs about upcoming releases or other information you would like to share) to the site to make it more creative. So, sit back and open your mind... WritingRaw is stepping into the future of literature like no other site on the web!
The July 1 issue of WritingRaw.com is NOW online: Writing Raw is a FREE literary ezine dedicated to new and emerging writers. Our goal at Writing Raw is simple - to serve the literary community with the opportunity to have their work online and out in the world. In this world of disappearing literary magazines, Writing Raw is providing the blank pages for writers to fill.
We also support other sites that help writers: http://www.WritingRaw.com believes in reaching out to other sites, writing groups, forums, and organizations. Contact us on how you can place a FREE banner, announcement or link on our site!
Or, use the Writing Raw Book Store to promote your novel or poetry collection: If you have a novel or collection that you would like to place in our store, we would be more than happy to do so - for FREE. Just send us a copy of the cover of the book, a brief synopsis, and a link as to where the material can be purchased.
NEW PAGES:
• News Feeds - stop in and check out some live news feeds ranging from topics concerning writing and the publishing world to outlandish worldwide new to inspire your imagination.
• The WALL - just like it sounds... come place some graffiti on the wall and let us know what you are thinking; or, find out what WritingRaw is talking about on other social media sites such as FaceBook, MySpace, Twitter, etc.; or, check out your horoscope or get a free tarot readings or even ask the Magic 8 Ball something you are in need of knowing. It's all fun...
• Shout Outs - this is where you can go and promote yourself or a project. Just give a shout out on this live wall to get your name out there.
• Art - the name says it all! This new page is dedicated to the artists out there who would like to submit their work so that us writers can use it for inspiration. The art work can be in any medium... just take a picture of it and send it to us, with a short bio, and any site or selling information you want. It's that easy.
• Cartoons - everyone needs a good laugh... besides having daily live feeds of cartoons, we hope to have submissions soon.
• And all of the old pages, but pumped up and evolved to the next level...
Also, be sure to check out the NEW announcements on WritingRaw.com's Home page from writer's group and organizations worldwide. Discover meeting places, organizations offering fellowships, contests, and a variety of other useful websites all dedicated to writers of every level.
Also, we are now taking Art and Cartoons - so all of you artists be sure to send us some great pictures and samples of your art!
NEW this month
The site has been overhauled and updated with more NEWS, ART, CARTOONS, something we like to call - THE WALL and various other pages and features that we are sure you will find both entertaining and informative.
